How to Store

Keep frosted cupcakes refrigerated.

How to Store Nuts

Nuts have a high oil content that can become rancid quickly and will ruin any dish that they are used in. Store shelled nuts in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 months. For longer storage, place shelled nuts in a freezer-weight resealable plastic bag and store in the freezer for up to 6 months. Do not chop nuts before storing; nuts stay fresh longer when stored in larger pieces.

Made it the way the recipe calls for the first time around and it was bland. The second time i changed it up to 1/2 C shredded ginger instead of ground, 1 1/4 C shredded carrots, 1/2 t clove, 1 t nutmeg, 1 t cardamon, 3/4 C golden raisins, 3T honey, 4T spiced rum and upped the cinnamon to 4t and just used cream cheese frosting and it turned out amazing.

I just made these cupcakes and I am very disappointed as to how they came out. They are very white and lack much flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, and wish that I would have read the comments and purchased spice cake mix instead of the pound cake. Also, the batter only made 18 cupcakes, not 24. I think to enhance the flavor of the cupcakes, I will use a sweeter frosting and top with cinnamon and sprinkle with sugar which will both add sweetness but also add a little bit of sparkle.

This dish was good. I made it for some of my co-workers and they're always asking for more.

Love the taste! The only thing I will change next time is the frosting. It was a bit weird.
